I'm still confused about how anaconda can possibly mount a partition
(two, including the boot partition) when fdisk thinks the partition
table is invalid.
The kernel is capable of dealing with HFS (Apple) partitions!
I suspect that you failed to zero the MBR before moving the drive from
the Mac to the Linux box. If you use the hfsutils or hfsplus-tools
package you'll get a set of tools that can "see" the partitions for that
drive. Thes tools are not installed by default. ("yum info *hfs*")
Good luck.
